How about instead fixing any of the hundreds of well-documented bugreports raised by your developers instead?


Stopped submitting those. Takes way too much time to gather everything relevant and not get any response.

Apples software quality is pretty shitty these days


I stopped too, after they threw back some of my reports because they were missing some completely unrelated generic diagnostic info (like which MacBook generation was I using, even if the bug was 100% reproducible everywhere), even though I’ve provided them a minimal working example on GitHub, and even the method name of the problematic private API.


Classic help desk tactics so you don’t have to do any work lol

Ah well, this JIRA field was empty can’t do anything about it. WONTFIX


Geothermal smartphones when?

Step 1: *systematically kill the middle class over a generation*

And it’s still mostly shit.

Doomscrolling and modern web products were never about quality, but rather about giving the user the hope of potentially seeing something of quality.

Which means that my cousin magic_hamster who said "this can just be an algorithm" is also right [1]. In most cases there's no need to leverage AI here. 90% of everything is gonna be crap, and people historically often get addicted to low-quality crap anyway.

Predicting the minimum-energy configuration of any physical system that can be modeled with a cluster of bubbles.


I remember watching this Jim Blinn seminar on tensor diagrams from the University of Utah: https://youtu.be/40TdlWURkS8

I understood maybe a third of what he’s talking about, but it’s fascinating.

He seems to be using similar slides to those on this page.


This is awesome! Thank you!


Thanks for the link!!!


Geometric algebra is not the same as algebraic geometry.


The article mentions Clifford algebras, so while not the same, it is certainly related.


Unfortunately there’s no hope for upgrading it to full Unicode coverage, as 2^16 is less than half the number of Unicode characters :(
